My taper so far.....

First of all, thank you everyone for your concern/well wishes :)

Thursday

8.30am: Started with breakfast at Babars Cafe with friends.
12.45pm: Coffee with Carolyne (aka Flashduck) at Cafe Gaudi, a highlight of my day.
2pm: Massage with Matt the masseuse. Bliss! (with a little pain thrown in - I think Gronk can relate to this)

Running? Oh, I'm supposed to run?! Seriously, I wish I could but even walking at the moment requires energy.

Friday

12.15pm: Takeaway pizza from Belucci's with work colleagues/very good friends (this pizza is to die for).
1.30pm: Coffee with Bec at Michels - just the thing to have after pizza.
4pm: Got home from work and crashed out on the sofa for an hour.
5.15pm: eggplant and tofu stirfy with steamed rice, and a cappuccino, at the mall - necessary sustenance before grocery shopping.

Again, no running. However, I am going to attempt a run tomorrow morning. I have planned to meet Strewth at Lake Ginninderra, we'll run around the lake, and then head to Black Pepper Cafe for coffee. (Yes, Carolyne, I promise to take it easy!) Tomorrow is another day and I will feel better! (I've just read over my entry and there appears to be a pattern forming - I am rather focused on food and coffee!)

(Robert, thanks for your comments - I have been trying to follow the advice that I gave you - I'm just not very good at it!)
